Joy Behar on Trump guilty verdict: 'I got so excited, I started leaking a little bit'

On Friday's episode of ABC's "The View," co-host Joy Behar said she was "so excited" that a Manhattan jury found former President Donald Trump guilty in his falsified business documents case that she “leaked a little bit.” 

"What was your reaction?" asked Whoopi Goldberg, another co-host who came in on her day off to discuss Trump's conviction. 

"I was at Costco buying, you know, ten boxes of Keurig coffee, and my watch started to buzz and I got so excited I started leaking a little bit," said Behar. 

Behar's remarks sparked a reaction from social media users.  

All six cohosts joined the Hot Topics table to slam Donald Trump, including the sole "conservative" co-host Alyssa Griffin who said she "feared for the safety of the judge." 

Griffin, who is a former Trump staffer, also criticized the 45th president for thinking "he's untouchable and will get away with everything." 

On Thursday, Donald Trump became the first president in US history to be convicted on felony charges. Republican lawmakers decried the verdict, while many Democrats celebrated it. A Manhattan jury found Trump guilty on all 34 charges in DA Alvin Bragg's falsified business documents case. DA Alvin Bragg and prosecutor Matthew Colangelo, who worked as the third lead person in the Bide DOJ, were summoned to testify before Congress after the verdict to the Select Subcommittee on the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.  

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY) said the "corrupt case" was "illegally brought forward" and that she looks forward to a higher New York court overturning the verdict. GOP Senators vowed to stop cooperating with the White House following the verdict. 

President Trump announced Friday that he will appeal the verdict. His sentencing date has been scheduled for July 11. The former president has raised more than $34.8 million dollars in small donations for his campaign since his conviction.
